Beschreibungdescription

Pharmazeutische Präparate für schwerlösliche WirkstoffePharmaceutical preparations for poorly soluble active ingredients

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft pharmazeutische Präparate für schwerlösliche Wirkstoffe sowie Verfahren zur Herstellung dieser Präparate.The present invention relates to pharmaceutical preparations for poorly soluble active substances and methods for the production of these preparations.

Generell bietet die Verabreichung eines pharmazeutischen Wirkstoffs durch orale Darreichungsformen, wie Tabletten, Kapseln oder Dragέes, Vorteile gegenüber anderen, z.B. parenteralen Darreichungsformen. Rein subjektiv werden Krankheiten, die durch Injektionen behandelt werden müssen, als gravierender im Vergleich mit anderen Krankheiten empfunden, bei denen die Verabreichung von Tabletten, Kapseln oder Dragέes kaum wahrgenommen wird. Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Eignung solcher Darreichungsformen zur Verabreichung durch den Patienten selbst, während parenterale Darreichungsformen, abgesehen von wenigen Ausnahmen, vom Arzt bzw. beauftragtem medizinischem Hilfspersonal appliziert werden müssen.In general, the administration of a pharmaceutical active ingredient by oral dosage forms, such as tablets, capsules or pills, offers advantages over others, e.g. parenteral dosage forms. Subjectively, diseases that need to be treated by injections are perceived as more serious in comparison to other diseases in which the administration of tablets, capsules or pills is hardly noticed. The suitability of such dosage forms for administration by the patient himself is particularly advantageous, while parenteral dosage forms, apart from a few exceptions, have to be administered by the doctor or assigned medical assistants.

Nach Verabreichung und Zerfall einer oralen Darreichungsform wirkt die Flüssigkeit des Gastrointestinaltrakts, z.B. Magen- oder Darmsaft, auf den Wirkstoff ein. Viele oral zu applizierende Wirkstoffe haben lipophile Eigenschaften und sind daher im wässrigen Milieu des Gastrointestinaltrakts schlecht löslich. Es mindert sich dann die resorptions¬ fähige Menge des Wiι-:-stoffs, so dass seine Bioverfügbarkeit abnimmt. Dies erfordert generell eine höhere Dosierung des zu applizierenden Wirkstoffes. Die Folge sind erhöhte biologische Variabilität und unerwünschte Schwankungen in der Wirksamkeit.After administration and disintegration of an oral dosage form, the liquid of the gastrointestinal tract, e.g. Gastric or intestinal juice, on the active ingredient. Many active ingredients to be administered orally have lipophilic properties and are therefore poorly soluble in the aqueous environment of the gastrointestinal tract. It then reduces the resorbable amount of the Wiι -: - - substance, so that its bioavailability decreases. This generally requires a higher dosage of the active ingredient to be applied. The result is increased biological variability and undesirable fluctuations in effectiveness.

Zur Verbesserung der Löslichkeit sind für schwerlösliche Wirkstoffe sogenannte Löslichkeitsvermittler beschrieben, z.B. hydrophile K05 venzien wie Ethanol, Propylen¬ glycol, flüssige Polyethylenglycole oder lipophile Lösl eitsvermittler wie Lecithin, Fettsäurepolyglycolester oder Fettsäureglycerinpolyglycolester. Die Verwendung solche Löslichkeitsvermittler ist wegen verminderter Verträglichkeit und mangelnder Stabilität der Darreichungsform, z.B. Entmischungseffekten, problematisch.So-called solubility promoters have been described for poorly soluble active substances, e.g. hydrophilic solvents such as ethanol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycols or lipophilic solubilizers such as lecithin, fatty acid polyglycol esters or fatty acid glycerol polyglycol esters. The use of such solubilizers is due to reduced tolerance and poor stability of the dosage form, e.g. Separation effects, problematic.

Man hat daher in der Deutschen Offenlegungsschrift 40 05 190 die Verwendung von Glycerinfettsäurepartialestem oder Partialestern von Propylenglycol vorgeschlagen. Diese Hilfsstoffe (Co-Tenside) sind nachteilig, da sie nur in dem engen HLB-Bereich von 2 bis 3 erhältlich sind. Dies erlaubt nur eine beschränkte Variation der Mengenverhältnisse der Bestandteile der Trägerzusammensetzung zwecks Anpassung an die unterschiedlichen Löslichkeiten der zu solubilisierenden Wirkstoffe.It has therefore been proposed in German Offenlegungsschrift 40 05 190 to use glycerol fatty acid partial esters or partial esters of propylene glycol. This Auxiliaries (co-surfactants) are disadvantageous because they are only available in the narrow HLB range of 2 to 3. This allows only a limited variation of the proportions of the components of the carrier composition in order to adapt to the different solubilities of the active ingredients to be solubilized.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, durch Auswahl besonders geeigneter Hilfsstoffe die Löslichkeit, Resorptionsfähigkeit und folglich auch die Bioverfügbarkeit von oral zu applizierenden Wirkstoffen zu erhöhen bzw. zu verbessern.The object of the present invention is to increase or improve the solubility, resorption capacity and consequently also the bioavailability of active substances to be administered orally by selecting particularly suitable auxiliary substances.

Diese Aufgabenstellung wird durch die vorliegende Erfindung gelöst, welche eine besonders vorteilhafte pharmazeutische Zusammensetzung zur verbesserten Solu- bilisierung eines in Wasser schwerlöslichen Wirkstoffs in der Trägerzusammensetzung betrifft. Die Trägerzusammensetzung gemäss vorliegender Erfindung besteht aus folgenden Komponenten:This object is achieved by the present invention, which relates to a particularly advantageous pharmaceutical composition for improved solubilization of an active substance which is sparingly soluble in water in the carrier composition. The carrier composition according to the present invention consists of the following components:

a) ca. 10-50 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Trägerzusammensetzung, eines im wesentlichen reinen, oder als Gemisch vorliegenden Co-Tensids, mit einem Hydrophil-Lipophil- Gleichgewicht kleiner als 10 (HLB-Wert nach Griffin), ausgewählt aus der Gruppe Polyglycerinfettsäureester und Sorbitanfettsäureester;a) approx. 10-50% by weight, based on the carrier composition, of an essentially pure co-surfactant or a mixture of co-surfactants with a hydrophilic-lipophile equilibrium less than 10 (HLB value according to Griffin), selected from the group of polyglycerol fatty acid esters and sorbitan fatty acid esters;

b) ca. 5-40 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Trägerzusammensetzung, eines im wesentlichen reinen, oder als Gemisch vorliegenden pharmazeutisch gebräuchlichen Öls, welches ein Triglycerid als wesentliche lipophile Komponente enthält; undb) approx. 5-40% by weight, based on the carrier composition, of an essentially pure, or a mixture of pharmaceutically customary oil which contains a triglyceride as an essential lipophilic component; and

c) ca. 10-50 Gew.-%, bezogen auf die Trägerzusammensetzung, eines im wesentlichen reinen, oder als Gemisch vorliegenden nicht-ionischen Tensids mit einem HLB-Wert grösser als 10;c) approx. 10-50% by weight, based on the carrier composition, of an essentially pure, or non-ionic surfactant with a HLB value greater than 10;

und gegebenenfalls weiteren pharmazeutisch annehmbaren Hilfsstoffen.and optionally other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

Ausserdem ist das Verfahren zur Herstellung einer pharmazeutischen Zusammensetzung mit einem solubilisierten, in Wasser schwerlöslichen Wirkstoff in einer Trägerzusammen¬ setzung mit den genannten Komponenten Gegenstand der Erfindung.

The term dispersibility defines a measure for the formation of microemulsions, real molecular solutions of the active substances and the auxiliary substances in water as well as colloidal solutions, e.g. Solutions from association colloids or molecular colloids which are clear or opalescent and, if appropriate after filtering, in particular with sterile filters with a pore diameter of about 5-10 μm, have no solid particles, or e.g. micellar solutions or spherical colloids that can only be separated in the ultracentrifuge. The dispersibility can e.g. in mg or mmol per liter of water.
